Electroconvulsiometer
“To Study anti-convulsant activity”
Electroconvulsiometer is used for applying maximal electro-shock through corneal electrodes provided. Instrument is used to study the anti-convulsant activity of phenytoin against maximal electro-shock induced convulsions in rat or mice. The instrument is provided with ammeter to control current intensity, timer & corneal electrodes.
“Specialized corneal and auricular (EAR) electrodes:”
